long ago it was rumored the possible development of a new handheld console Sony's PSP2. But those rumors subsided when he appeared on the mobile phone scene, PlayStation Phone, which at the time seemed the answer to notebook market to compete with Apple. However, only a few hours ago, Sony revealed the secret during a presentation in Tokyo and presented the true PSP2, which its creators say, " is as powerful as the PlayStation 3. "
To begin with, not even being called PSP2. For all, this new console called NGP (Next Generation Platform) and as such, it includes some pretty innovative details, but let's start at the beginning. This is a pretty big console, with dimensions of 182mm x 18.6mm x 83.5mm, leaving room for a touch screen 5-inch OLED, with a 16:9 aspect ratio and a resolution of 960x540. It includes four types of connections: 802.11b / g WiFi, 3G and Bluetooth. This should add two cameras, front and rear, a microphone, speakers, an integrated accelerometer and a gyroscope.
All this is accompanied by a new operating system more simple and accessible. Since we have used Android, is composed of several screens, each dedicated to a console. Whether games, the social aspect or the market. These screens can be customized with several different types of icons and appearance. Talk about services at the end of the note, but it's worth noting that the store will bring several games to different platforms such as mobile phones and tablets, so they are working on an integration of the store to Android.
The hardware is a very important issue, especially when Nintendo made a console that also offer video and 3D images, is the most powerful it has taken so far in the handheld market. And Sony is not far behind with an ARM Cortex A-9 with four cores and a video card + PowerVR SGX543MP4 also four cores. We're talking about a card capable of displaying 133 million polygons on screen. In addition, the games come in a memory card unidentified " dedicated exclusively to NGP games, leaving aside the UMD format of the original PSP. All this makes us ask how could take the battery in this little monster, and although no official word on the matter, rumors indicate that potential would be between 4 and 5 hours of play. No doubt it sounds possible.

After much mystery, the PSP2 is called NGP.

When talking about the controls, the console is very similar to what we expected, with the news we all wanted to include. In addition, the well-known directional pad, four face buttons and two of the top, we add a new analog stick and a touch screen. The two analog will be perfect to play FPS games and any other action and screen Touch menus make navigation simple and certainly have their positive aspects about playing. But those are not the only surprises.
As original Nintendo DS, which included two screens and touch, NPM also has some surprises up his sleeve, as the touch panel which has been in the back. This is definitely a novelty in terms of consoles. As explained by Sony, this panel will have a lot of new interactions for users, from touch, grab, push, scrape and pinch, as long as the game allows it, of course. In one example they showed, the player must lead balls on land and using the rear panel could be made mounds to direct the ball towards the right direction.
Before talking about the games, we say that the pictures we have seen the games look great. Not match the PS3, because that's an exaggeration, but it is clear that NPM has better graphics than any other mobile platform of the moment. Even better than the iPhone 4. This power figure was shown on stage while playing a new Uncharted, developed exclusively for the laptop. Hideo Kojima also took the stage and showed the version of Metal Gear Solid 4 for the NGP, which is almost as well as its PlayStation 3 counterpart.
addition to the two mentioned above, during the presentation said have portable versions of games like Killzone, Wipeout, Resistance, Lost Planet, Monster Hunter, LittleBigPlanet, Call of Duty, Hustle Kings and Hot Shots Golf ... whatever that is. But the companies said they are working on titles for the console, Capcom, Codemasters, Gameloft, Hudson, Level-5, Namco Bandai, Sega, Square Enix, Tecmo, Ubisoft, Activision, Epic Games, High Voltage, PopCap Games, 2K Games, Warner Bros. Interactive, Rebellion, Rockstar Games, Team 17 and Konami. No doubt an impressive list of successful developers.
The ability to have integrated GPS also gives an opportunity to communicate with friends in other ways. For example, by applying LiveArea, you will see what we've been playing and how long people who are near your area. But this is only the beginning, as you can also chat with them and see rankings in various games, with only those who are in the area. But this is just one of many applications that are preparing to offer in the online bazaar that will also be available on phones with Android. Undoubtedly
looks like a very capable console that, unlike the original PSP, it offers things that no other platform offers. Today we know that is coming out in late 2011 but still remains to be seen how much we pay for this beauty. Given that Sony is likely to be a high sum, but you may get lucky and have learned their lesson. The prices we know are just rumors and, while one indicated that he would get the ridiculous sum of $ 599, Michael Pachter, analyst popular, said he would leave about $ 250. Place your bets! Source
